Summary

Westside Elementary in Angleton, TX, is a large PK-5 school serving 1,029 students in the Angleton Independent School District (Isd), where nearly 70% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, and it has achieved a remarkable turnaround to become a consistent top performer in the region.

Westside Elementary stands out as the clear academic leader within the Angleton ISD, consistently outperforming nearby schools like Rancho Isabella Elementary, Central Elementary, Northside Elementary, Southside Elementary, and Frontier Elementary. Its math scores are particularly impressive, with proficiency rates in 4th and 5th grade far exceeding both district and state averages. The school also excels at supporting students from low socio-economic backgrounds, ranking in the 92nd percentile statewide for this group. However, it faces strong competition from schools in neighboring districts, such as Bess Brannen Elementary in the Brazosport Independent School District (Isd) and Danbury Elementary in the Danbury Independent School District (Isd), which consistently rank higher overall.

While Westside has shown dramatic improvement since 2019 and maintains a strong 4-star rating, there are areas for growth. Science scores in 5th grade, while above the state average, lag behind the school's own high standards in reading and math. Additionally, the school has experienced a sharp decline in performance for English Language Learner students, dropping from the 83rd to the 42nd percentile in recent years. Despite these challenges, Westside’s consistent high performance, especially in math and for low-income students, makes it a standout choice for families in the Angleton area.
